trustily

/tɹˈʌstili/ adv

In a trusty manner.

Word Origin From Old Norse traust 'trust, confidence,' which came from Proto-Germanic *traustaz, ultimately from PIE *deru- 'firm, solid' — the same root that gave us tree and true. Trustily means in a trustworthy manner, with the solidity of an oak. The connection between trust and tree is surprising: both are about being firm and steadfast. Related words: trust, trustee, trustworthy, true, truth, troth (a pledge), and betroth (to pledge in marriage).
